[ Jon is not, in fact, a 3-meter-tall monstrosity. He is a scrawny monstrosity less than two meters tall. And he does not feed on children.
So he follows the relentless pull into that alleyway, and stands there in the mouth of it, in front of nothing but a dumpster and empty space. He sighs heavily.
Well. Seems unlikely the compulsion would leave him here. That means she is either invisible, capable of scaling alley walls at startling speeds, or hiding behind the dumpster.
All three seem feasible, given his luck— her nervousness in public could have been feigned; she could be tugging him along on purpose— but he'll attempt to assume the latter. Anyway, all of these options would indicate that she's noticed him. ]
Excuse me? I, I'd like to speak with you, please. I don't mean any harm.
